Gujarat Titans (GT) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) face off each other in match 17 of IPL 2024 in Ahmedabad on Thursday, April 4. The match begins from 7.3-0 pm IST and is already the third home match for the Gujarat Titans.
The Titans got off to a winning start against Mumbai Indians in their opening game. Then they lost to CSK and won their next against Sunrisers Hyderabad. The Titans won the match chasing 163 with five balls and seven wickets to spare.
The clinical bowling effort led by Mohit Sharma was backed up by a clinical batting effort as the match was finished by David Miller and Sai Sudharsan. The only issue with Gujarat Titans heading into this game is skipper Shubman Gill not scoring runs in the first three matches. He has scored 75 in the first three games with a best of 36.
Punjab Kings seem to be in a bigger problem. After winning their first game against Delhi Capitals, they lost their next two against RCB and LSG. They failed to defend 177 against Bangalore and could not chase down 200 against the Super Giants.
The Kings have failed to notch up consistent wins in the past IPL seasons and the same thing is happening early on this season as well. Their batting lineup seems to be heavily dependent on Shikhar Dhawan. The bowling also seems to be pace-heavy with only Harpreet Brar seemingly being the specialist spinner. Rahul Chahar has not looked at his best.
